Dog Day Care and Boarding in Waltham Abbey
JJ's VIP Pets is right here in Waltham Abbey. Since 2005 we have been caring for local dogs from our family home, where they get a secure two acre field, countryside walks and plenty of attention. We hold a 5 star licence from Epping Forest District Council (LN/00004591) and are rated 4.9 stars from over 100 Google reviews.

Dog day care in Waltham Abbey
Being based in town means your dog is never far from home. We collect by 10.15am and drop off after 4.45pm, and a full day is £35 with pick up and drop off included.
Dogs have a dedicated room with direct access outside, a cosy bed whenever they want one, and our steel-fenced field to run around in. High energy or happy to potter, every dog can go at their own pace. See our dog day care page.
Dog boarding in Waltham Abbey
Our boarding guests stay in the family home for £50 per 24 hours, rather than in a commercial kennels. They spend their days in the field, on walks and in supervised play, and their evenings settled indoors with us. You will get regular photos and videos while you are away, and because we are local, drop off and collection are easy to arrange. See our dog boarding page.
